Downeast Trips 

Ages 10-15   

Session 3: July 7th-  13th 
Session 5: July 21th- 27th 

Adventure Camp is for kids who are incredibly passionate about spending time

with their friends at Sleep Away Camp every year, but are looking for a little more

adventure. This program is designed to give campers a new and exciting experience outside of The Bangor YMCA Wilderness Center at Camp Jordan while allowing them to maintain the friendships they have developed over the years.

 

Adventure Campers will stay in the cabins with their peers, participate in all the cabin group activities of the week, and have breakfast and dinners with their cabin.

 

Between breakfast and dinner is where the adventure lies. After breakfast, Adventure Campers will leave the camp site to explore the wonderful natural resources our beautiful state of Maine has to offer! Campers will spend their days learning to climb with professional guides, paddling and hiking our beautiful lakes and mountains, and will culminate their experience with a day at Sand Beach in “America’s Favorite Place”, Acadia National Park.
